This DVD is great. The great spectrum of riders. Different styles and different places. These riders find lines that the average guy would never even see!
I just wish I had as many powder days as these backcountry boys appear to get!
Amazing Freeriding and Freestyle manouvers. There is something for everyone here. Steep mountain runs, jumps off everything, railslides (anywhere!), Halfpipes and lots of style.
Beautiful camera work brings you close enough to the action to appreciate the skill involved in some of the moves.
The soundtrack is cool and good quality as is the picture quality. (No need for 5.1 Dolby Digital here... :-)).
If you love Snowboarding, you'll love this!

This is the first snowboard movie I purchased but I can say it is the best I have ever seen. There is a bit of everything, freeride, rails and big airs - not too much of each. Very nice views and camera work is excellent. I really enjoyed this DVD and I can honestly recommend it.

if you are into snowboarding and are looking for an extremely high quality package then take the plunge cause this is it.
it is simply stunning with tons of the most sick serious mountain descents interspersed with a few really rad trick jumps, but this is really ideally suited to those who want to frighten themselves with scene after scene of sickeningly scary fbig mountain freeriding. the music is way modern and is also superb. my favourite dvd ever! just wow man!

This was a great snowboarding video. They did alot of crazy moves. Most of it takes place at major ski resorts. The out takes were funny, seeing all the professional boarders fall down the mountain. The backround rock music set the snowboarding mood. There are some moves that you probably won't see in other snowboarding videos. There are 18 different borders doing different stunts. This is worth buying. You could watch it over and over.

This video was really cool. The background music is from famous rock artists and the snowboarding moves they do are very daring. The huge vertical drops that they board are amazing. There's a variety of skiing sites including helicopter-drop mountains, terrain parks, and competitions. They ski Squaw Valley, Mammoth Mt. and Jackson Hole. The parts I liked best is when the boarders created an avalanche and skied ahead of it. There are alot of funny outtakes throughout the video that shows different skier mistakes and situations.

A great combination of freestyle and freeride. The tricks are great, but I especially enjoy shots of riders charging down the mountains. And there are plenty of "back country" freeriding in this video. From Jeremy Jones dropping off a cornice to Olofsson pulling off ollies in the middle of steep chute. One scene where Jones' helmet-cam shows how it feels like to ride straight down a spine (no carving, just straight down that matha) is just sickening.

The editing are excellent. I'd assume mountain ridings cost much more to film than parking lot rail riding, that's why most snowboard videos (being on budgets) are strictly freestyle-mania. The music is not as bad some say it is, but definitely not all garage bands are worth listening to.

I highly recommend this video, especially those of you who like backcountry snowboarding.

if you like snowboarding you can miss this DVD. It's incredible. All the tricks appering inside are impossible for almost all the humans

45 minutes, good variety, good soundtrack, good quality, great price... all goood...>>>

I always like Transworld Videos. I've got em since Totally Board I! this vid was sweet, and the riders were new skewl and it still kept me glued to the Screen. It's worth yer time, but consider finding vhs instead. this was the first dvd i got of the series. It was all worth it. enjoy yer couch shredding 8-/-<|

Get this vid!!! It is to snowboarding what the "Crusty Demons" are to motocross. It's enough to compell any inhabitant of an equatorial jungle want to take up snowboarding. What more can be said?
